Isotta showed some potential for Ger Lyons before heading for France where she's been racing on soft ground. She's never run on the all-weather while winning hurdler Global Export had just the one run here back in 2021 when well beaten. MR ESCOBAR made a decent start over the track and trip in November and put that experience to good use on a return visit last month. He should make further progress and looks the one to beat as True Artist, an 18-race maiden, refused to come out of the stalls twice here in September and has been running moderately over timber.
